She has a unique talent of creating climactic scenes. For instance, in Barrayar "I went shopping", in The Vor Game "Hold this wormhole!", and in "The borders of Infinity "Chow Call!". Nobody does that better.<BR/><BR/>In case you might have missed it, she release a short novella, "Winterfair Gifts", which you can find if you look around a bit.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15907727.post-81416874174307728352007-08-15T15:17:00.000-04:002007-08-15T15:17:00.000-04:00"I'm taking Barrayar out on the porch with a beer ..."I'm taking Barrayar out on the porch with a beer and a cigarette and see if anything bubbles to the surface by this afternoon"<BR/><BR/>Mental fermentation?BobGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15405172215849046373noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15907727.post-39207250997373346372007-08-15T14:05:00.000-04:002007-08-15T14:05:00.000-04:00I think I've said this before, but can't really re...I think I've said this before, but can't really remember: It's not so bad when it happens to me.
